In the [[War of the Ring]], Bagshot Row had become a yawning sand and gravel pit. After the [[Battle of Bywater]] the destruction was replaced by a new row called, simply, [[New Row]] (in the town of [[Bywater]] it became a joke to refer to it as Sharkey's End). After the restoration the [[Gaffer Gamgee]] returned to Number 3, and his son [[Samwise Gamgee|Sam]] lived with him until Sam married [[Rose Cotton]] and relocated to Bag End.<ref>{{RK|VI8}}</ref>

==Etymology==

+

It was so named because the earth removed in excavating Bag End was ''shot'' over the edge of the sudden fall in the hillside onto the ground. It was this part which later became the gardens and earthwalls of the other dwellings.<ref>{{HM|N}}, p. 765</ref>
